The house was great. The dunes were a little tall too really see the beach and ocean. We have a toddler so a gate at the top of the stairs would have been nice.

My family (9 of us with children and grandchildren) enjoyed our time at Howard Ranch. There was plenty of room for all of us. I wanted a house with enough beds and seating in both living and dining and this was perfect. Having 4 bathrooms was great, too. The house was clean, but did notice scratches and a greasy film on some skillets. It was great having a washer and dryer. I sent a couple of emails to company and never received a response. I called and they were very nice and answered my questions, such as are there any beach accessories(no) and a charcoal grill(yes). After getting on the road, I realized I had a new email with more info-yes there are beach accessories(hmm), extra frig(yay) and charcoal grill. Had to call to get a code to lockbox for key to downstairs closet where the grill, extra frig and beach things were. It was great having the screened porch to be outside but out of the sun. If anyone has ambulatory problems, it may be a little difficult for you to get to the beach since there is no boardwalk and the dune is a little steep. This was a great house for the 9 of us. The grandchildren loved being at the beach and the beach was very nice here.

October at the beach 🏖️
Even though it was for a short 4 days and the weather wasn’t perfect ~ we had the best time! Just the right place to relax and enjoy the sounds and sights of the beach with our family. Our best trip to the beach in a very long time ♥️

First time at Gulf Shored
We had a great time and the property was amazing! Having a screened in porch and another for sunbathing was a nice addition! I’m so glad we chose Howard’s Ranch! Thank you for the ease of check in and the texts during the week to check in on us!

Howard’s Ranch was a great choice for four friends traveling together because we each had our own bedroom and bath. It was very clean and we loved having the covered porch. The kitchen was well-furnished. It truly felt like we had a private beach! We left feedback on a few issues we hope will be corrected (only 4 rolls of toilet paper, problems with water pressure and hot water, ants in the kitchen.)

Love it!
Our family loves this property. It's quiet and private yet close enough to town if you want to venture out. The screened in porch is a plus. The only negatives are the twin mattresses are not very comfortable and we wish there was a board walk over to the beach. However, those things did not stop us from rebooking a 2nd time.

Home away from home
This house was amazing. Had everything we needed and the things we did need was communicated to us. I do wish it had a dock that went out to the beach but that really wasn’t that big of a deal. It would have made the home an 11 out of 10 though! We would stay here again! Love love love the screened in porch for those rainy days too.

Loved it!
I loved the area. Far enough away from the crowds to have your own little quiet piece of beach. The house was very nice and the beds comfy. I got a very prompt reaponse when I had a question. The only thing I would change is adding a boardwalk to the beach. The dune is a little tough on old bones but we had a fabulous time. We'll be back.

Perfect family space
Kitchen and dining table great for large family. Clean and homey! Loved having the four bathrooms for each bedroom! Would have loved a ramp/walkway from deck to at least get over the dune to the beach. But over all not that bad, we haves worse. Just a suggestion.

Great location and beautiful home.
We stayed for a a week at Howard's Ranch and loved it! The location is a bit remote, but just minutes from restaurants and shopping which was perfect for us. The house is large and spacious and beautifully decorated. Having the screened in porch and a deck was perfect for the cooler days and just hanging out. The only thing I would say is that climbing the dune every day to get to the beach was difficult for my elderly mom. This isn't a good place to take someone that has limited mobility that wants to get on the beach. That said, we loved it and would definitely go there again.
